The human parasite Loa loa in cytokine and cytokine receptor gene knock out BALB/c mice: survival, development and localization
BACKGROUND: Immunological mechanisms involved in the survival and development of human filarial species in the vertebrate host are poorly known due to the lack of suitable experimental models. In order to understand the role of cytokines in the survival and development of filarial larvae in the vert...
